ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

Katie, you might start with a short intro to the tools and some ground
rules for their use, i.e., the hammer is for "last resort," with
permission and supervision by the instructor.  We provided bags, so the
kids could take some of the safe, fun parts with them.  

But don't forget to tell your facility and exhibits staff what's planned
on those days.  Ours once thought there was a rash of exhibit vandalism
taking place when kids had left some of their take-a-part items here and
there around the building.  ;->
